Paris Olympics qualification is going to test Indian athletes, says Anju Bobby George
Kolkata: The qualification standards for the 2024 Olympics for track and field events were announced by the World Athletics recently, leaving Indian athletes once again with the daunting task of sealing their Paris ticket.
That’s because World Athletics’ ever-improving entry standards have expectedly raised the bar higher than before as it pushes most of the disciplines to breach their national records. Elite names like Neeraj Chopra (javelin throw), Avinash Sable (3000m steeplechase) among others are expected to face little difficulty in breaching the entry standards but the rest of them will have to punch above their weight with qualification window opening from 1 July, 2023.
